Which option is not one of the IDES IPEB dispositions?

• A. Return to Duty
• B. Temporary Disability Retirement List
• C. Administrative separation
• D. Discharge with Severance Pay

Answer: (C)

The important idea is how IDES IPEB outcomes are defined. After evaluation, the board determines whether a service member remains in service, or leaves with disability benefits. The recognized paths are: return to duty when found fit, placement on the Temporary Disability Retirement List for potential medical improvement, or discharge with severance pay when unfit for duty and retirement isn’t appropriate. Administrative separation isn’t a direct IPEB disposition; it’s an administrative discharge path handled separately from the IPEB’s medical conclusions. So Administrative separation isn’t one of the IPEB’s defined outcomes.
